“Haha… Well done! The greater the influence of Chinese people in the Brazilian business community, the more stable our position in Brazil will be.
However, we must also be careful not to allow irreconcilable conflicts to arise between the locals and us. If possible, we should lead the Chinese Chamber of Commerce to do more charity work locally.
We must not allow those with ulterior motives to take advantage of us Chinese and blame the rise of other races on us Chinese.
Once such a trend of thought emerges, it must be nipped in the bud in the bud. Because it is very likely that this is a means for hostile forces to kill with a borrowed knife.”
As he spoke, he looked at his younger brother again. After all, the Fang family's propaganda channels were now in his hands. Once there was an idea of deliberately creating conflicts between the Chinese and other races, their propaganda department would definitely be the first to get wind of it.
Fang Tao also understood Fang Lang's meaning very well. When he saw his brother looking at him, he nodded repeatedly and said to Fang Lang:
"Brother, don't worry! Our media company will definitely focus on controlling the ideological trends of the Brazilian people and provide guidance to prevent any ideas that are unfavorable to us from appearing in society."
Seeing that Fang Tao understood what he meant, Fang Lang nodded with satisfaction and said:
"In addition to controlling the ideological trends in society, we should also encourage our Chinese compatriots to join the army, preferably through studying in military academies and becoming officers.
...
...
Only when we Chinese have enough military power in our hands can we ensure that our interests will not be violated. The fact that our Fang family has grown to its current size in such a short period of time is proof of this.
We must focus on promoting this in our Chinese schools and Chinese newspapers, and make sure all Chinese people are clearly aware of this.”
Everyone is well aware of this and naturally will not raise any objections.
Fang Xinshui seemed to be afraid of forgetting the role of Hongyi Hall, and he quickly said:
“As for us, Hong Yi Tang, even though we are part of the underworld, our deterrent power in society is no less than that of the military.
In fact, because we don't follow the rules and do things without any bottom line, those people are even more afraid of us than the police and the army.
Therefore, I think the development of our Hongyi Hall should not be ignored.”
Fang Lang also agrees with this. Wherever there is light in this world, there must be dark places. If the Chinese community only walks in the light, they will be walking on one leg and will definitely fall flat on their face.
Therefore, from the very beginning, he strongly supported the development of Hongyitang. After hearing Fang Xinshui's words, he nodded with a smile on his face:
"Uncle Shui, rest assured. Hong Yi Tang is the most important weapon of our Fang family. We will definitely not relax our investment in it. The current scale of Hong Yi Tang is definitely not enough. In the future, when our business goes out of Brazil, Hong Yi Tang must also follow us.
For example, regarding the crude oil purchasing business we just mentioned, since we plan to purchase crude oil from Angola in the future, we must have our own manpower in Angola. Your Hongyitang is the best force, which will not be conspicuous and can provide the necessary military support.
If possible, you can even secretly engage in some arms trade in Angola. This will be very helpful for the future development of our Fang family in Africa."
At this point, Fang Lang realized that he seemed to have let something slip, so he immediately stopped talking and changed the subject:
"By the way, Uncle Shui, the development of Hongyitang is still a little bit monotonous. Don't you want to continue to immigrate from Southeast Asia to Brazil? Brazil may not interfere too much in these matters now.
But once the proportion of Chinese continues to increase and attracts the attention of those who care, there may be policies to restrict Chinese immigration. At this time, if you want to continue to immigrate, you must have a safe smuggling channel.
You are a gang, I believe you should know how to operate these, you must not ignore this, it is best to prepare early. "
Hearing this, Fang Xinshui smiled and nodded:
"Haha...don't worry! Brother Lang, we have already made preparations for this. The gem smuggling in the Amazon region has provided us with rich experience.
In the north, the smuggling routes in the Amazon jungle are now basically under our control. Any goods or people who want to enter Brazil through the Amazon jungle will definitely not escape our eyes and ears.
In the southern state of Rio Grande do Sul, the number of Chinese people now far exceeds that of other ethnic groups. We have already set up several very secret routes there.
Whether it is transporting goods or people, absolute safety can be guaranteed."
Seeing Fang Xinshui's confident look, Fang Lang nodded with satisfaction. When he led the army to wipe out the Eddie brothers' rebels in the Amazon rainforest, he saw the advantages of the Amazon jungle and introduced Hong Yitang into it. Now it seems that Hong Yitang is doing quite well in the local area.
"That's good. I trust Uncle Shui to do the job, but I want to remind you that you can touch other things except poison. When you are in the society, you should also constantly publicize the harm of poison to your brothers, especially how the Qing Dynasty perished and how badly we Chinese were harmed by this thing.
If someone wants to use our channels to transport these things, we can charge a high toll, but we must not get involved ourselves, understand?"
Seeing Fang Lang's serious tone and expression, Fang Xinshui also understood that the other party was definitely not joking, and he couldn't help but take it seriously and said in a firm tone:
"Okay! I understand. I will do as you said when I get back. I will arrange for someone to do the propaganda and give death orders to my brothers. If anyone dares to touch these things, I will break his legs."
Hearing this, Fang Lang just smiled, glanced at everyone in the room and said:
"You don't have to break his legs. Soon, I will find a reason to mobilize the congressmen controlled by our Fang family to implement a strict anti-drug bill in Brazil. Those who participate in the production, sale and trafficking of these things will be directly executed!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the ancestral hall was in an uproar. No one had expected Fang Lang to be so cruel. You know, there is no death penalty in Brazil now. And promoting such a bill must be very difficult.
Fang Lang knew all these very well, but he had already made up his mind that no matter how much resistance he faced, he must push forward this bill with all his strength.
Because he knew very well in his mind that the future of South America would basically be destroyed by this thing.
Why did Brazil, which was once well developed, fall into its current situation? Apart from the tactics used by the Americans, the most important reason was the spread of drugs.
Even the president's bodyguards think of carrying this thing when they go abroad. Just think about how rampant this thing has become. How can society develop normally with the existence of this thing?
In later generations, why can't Brazil's largest slum be eradicated? In addition to government corruption, the huge interests involved are also a reason that cannot be ignored!
In the Brazil of another world, there are not so many Chinese people. Fang Lang doesn't care whether they are flooding or not. But in this world, because of Fang Lang's arrival, the proportion of Chinese people in the Brazilian population has reached one-fifth.
If he doesn't find a way to control these things, many Chinese people may suffer from them in the future, and even his hometown may be affected. This is something Fang Lang absolutely cannot accept. Therefore, he must find a way to eliminate everything in the bud as soon as possible.
The strictest drug prohibition in the entire Americas is the first step. Of course, the implementation of this bill still needs a process, including finding enough negative examples in the early stage, constantly promoting them in the media, and allowing a trend to form in society before pushing congressmen to propose such a bill.
This is the logical way, and it won't seem particularly deliberate or abrupt, causing confusion and doubt among the people. This is also the reason why he asked Fang Xinshui to lend the passage to those guys.
After all, Fang Lang was very familiar with the principle that "if you want to destroy a person, you must first make him crazy."
At the same time, letting Fang Xinshui open this channel will also make it easier for the police to track the whereabouts of these guys later, so that they can hit them with one strike and catch them all in one fell swoop.
In order to further improve the living environment of Chinese people in Brazil, or to make Brazil a safe and prosperous country, Fang Lang is also prepared to prevent one thing from happening, that is, the concentration of slums.
Centralizing slums was a wrong policy of the Brazilian government in the 1960s, which directly led to the emergence of the world's largest slum in Rio de Janeiro.
In this huge slum, the government has completely lost its management ability, gangs are rampant, DP is rampant, and the government is powerless to do anything about it, which has brought an irreversible hidden danger to social security.
Of course, this has not happened yet, and with the current influence of the Fang family on Brazil, this policy should not appear. In fact, as long as Brazil's economy continues to move forward and every Brazilian has a stable job, all of this can be completely avoided.
Fang Xinshui was also shocked when he heard Fang Lang's words. As a social person, he actually didn't care much about drugs. Since Fang Lang didn't allow them to touch it, he would just do what the other party wanted.
However, he was still shocked when he heard that Fang Lang was going to let Brazil pass such a strict anti-drug bill. At the same time, he also understood why Fang Lang said that he didn't need to break the legs of the drug addicts. Because what the other party wanted was not a leg, but the lives of these people.
When he realized this, he couldn't help but be shocked, thinking that he almost didn't understand what his nephew meant!
However, he was somewhat puzzled by Fang Lang's idea. After all, in this era, countries around the world did not have many prohibitions in this regard. Whether in Europe, the United States or his hometown, there had never been such a strict drug prohibition order.
"Brother Lang, isn't this too harsh? We can just not touch it ourselves. If we completely ban it, it may affect the interests of many people!
Even among us Chinese, many people have the habit of smoking opium in their hometowns.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Lang's eyes fixed and he stared at Fang Xinshui:
"Uncle Shui, what do you mean? Are you saying that some of our immigrants smoke opium?"
Although Fang Xinshui is Fang Lang's uncle, Fang Lang's status is very high. Now almost everything in the Fang family depends on Fang Lang, so Fang Lang's prestige in the Fang family is unparalleled.
Hearing Fang Lang's question, Fang Xinshui's whole body tensed up, but facing Fang Lang's gaze, he didn't dare to tell any lies.
"Yes, those ordinary laborers are all strong and healthy people, but among those immigrants with some capital, some do have this bad habit in their hometowns."
Fang Lang's heart sank when he heard this. He didn't expect that despite all his precautions, he still couldn't defend against it.
"So, there are Chinese people who are also engaged in this kind of business, right?"
Seeing that the matter could no longer be concealed, Fang Xinshui simply nodded honestly.
“Among the immigrants, there were several former Shanghai Qing Gang bosses. After they followed our immigrant ship to Brazil, they established several small gangs among the Chinese.
We did not notice them at first. Later, their subordinates had conflicts with our brothers in Hongyitang. When our people conducted in-depth investigations on them, we discovered that they were engaged in the opium trade.
However, due to our local control, they dare not openly open a smoking den. Now they have a manor in the city of South Casuarina, and many immigrants from their hometowns gather there for entertainment. "
This time Fang Lang was really angry. He used too much force in his left hand, which was holding the cigar, and broke the cigar into two pieces. Seeing this, everyone in the Fang family in the ancestral hall felt a chill in their hearts, realizing that Fang Lang was really angry this time.
Since it has already happened, it is obviously meaningless to investigate how these people came to Brazil. Moreover, it is normal for such people to appear among more than 10 million Chinese people, and Fang Lang is not completely unprepared for this.
Fortunately, they have been discovered now. If they had continued hiding in the dark, it would have been a real big trouble.
"Very good, since they are already here, don't let them get away. From now on, let your people from Hongyitang conduct a detailed investigation on them first.
I was worried that if we only targeted Brazilians when banning drugs in Brazil, it would cause unnecessary ethnic conflicts! Now is the perfect time to directly pull them out as the black sheep in the Chinese community.
Let everyone know that Brazil's drug control policy is fair to everyone, no matter who he is, he will be severely punished. "
After saying this, he looked around at everyone in the ancestral hall with a cold gaze and said:
“Dear Fang clan members, I must take this opportunity today in the ancestral hall to make it clear to everyone that I have a zero-tolerance attitude towards poison.
If anyone here, or anyone in your family, uses or participates in the sale of such products, please do not blame me for being ruthless and using him as an example to prove my attitude towards drug prohibition. "
Under Fang Lang's cold gaze, everyone felt their hair stand on end, knowing that Fang Lang was not joking. After looking at each other, everyone nodded and expressed their opinions to Fang Lang:
"Don't worry, Brother Lang, we promise not to cross this line."
"That's right, Brother Lang, don't worry. We are so busy with our business right now, who has time to deal with those unscrupulous things?"
…
After everyone had expressed their opinions, the old man who had been silent all this time slowly stood up, looked around at everyone in the ancestral hall, and said:
"My dear grandson is right. We in the Fang family must never do such unscrupulous things. Today, we will set a family rule in the ancestral hall: Any of our Fang family descendants who smoke or participate in the sale of DP will be removed from the family tree and expelled from the Fang family."
